Owner had been driving for approximately 35 minutes before arriving to work. The vehicle was parked for approximately 15 minutes before another CO-worker noticed that flames were coming from under the hood. The fire department was notified and they extinguished the fire. Vehicle was inoperable. The entire passenger side of the vehicle was burned.
Ever since I bought this car brand new I have had a problem with the speaker wire shorting and getting hot. I once had to call the fire dept because the speaker was so hot to the touch. I am still having that problem and just cut the wire again due to sparking. I took the car to freeman Toyota in santa rosa, CA where I got it and they rewired the speakers. That did not fix the problem, and I do not know what to do next.
